Personal Information:
I have a hubby & 2 beautiful girls(the k''s). I live in NY I work f/t in the mental health field. I love it! I have endured the loss of my sister''s son, my nephew and the tragic accident that took his life. I need to survive for my girls, but at SP I have decided surviving is not enough..I have to live, I have to be as happy as I possibly can, I have to take care of ME too.

Thanks for the friends add ! I have completed the circle of friendship by adding you as a friend ! Hope that things start slowing down for Roscoe. I was just looking over where I was back in June - July of last year getting ready for an apt. with the doctor on Friday. I can not believe how long it took for me to get things in order. How much harder it has to be for Roscoe, he doesn't understand what is taking place and you have no way to telling him it will get better !

Hi, Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm enjoying my workouts, since I'm not working. I always wanted to really devote time & /w/working all the time I was always tired. I was on my feet all day & just wanted to sit when i got home. But it's different now. I live in LI also, where are You from? I'm in Suffolk county
